Vulnerable Children Society supports extremely impoverished and vulnerable children and families in Ethiopia. We work with Ethiopian partners on the ground to operate small-scale, impactful programs.

Currently, we are supporting 70 children in Kality. The children attend our Love & Hope Centre, which provides them with a hot nourishing meal each day, tutoring after school, counselling, love, support, participation in clubs, acceptance in a welcoming community... and even essentials like showers and laundry on the weekends. Many of the children are orphaned and from extremely poor families, so the centre means the world of difference for their quality of life, safety, happiness, and their future. If you would like to support this program, please select "Monthly Donation" and become a Love & Hope Sponsor.

Our second program is impactful and life-changing, but for a very different group of youth in Addis Ababa. Vulnerable Children Society's Teenage Sex Trade Worker Retraining Program enables young girsl caught in the sex trade to leave the streets. For one year, they receive care in a group home, life skills coaching and vocational training (in sewing, cooking or hair dressing,) counselling, support, and finally, job placement. The girls in this program have another chance at independence and a safe livelihood. It's truly life-changing! To donate to this program, please select "Project Fund - Currently Teenage Reemployment.

Back in Canada, we are run by a passionate team of hard-working volunteers. We sincerely thank you for your support!

A donation of securities or mutual fund shares is the most efficient way to give charitably since the capital gains tax does not apply. Your security or mutual fund donation means a larger donation for the charities you support. It also means a larger charitable tax receipt for you. We’re the largest processor of online security and mutual fund donations in Canada. And, we make it easy to disburse your donation across multiple charities.

Bringing friends, family or co-workers together to support this charity multiplies your donation.
